age: Half-elves age at much the same rate as humans, reaching adulthood at the age of 20. They live much longer than humans, however, often exceeding 180 years.

Basic Information

Anatomy

Half-elves are humanoid, often averaging between 5'-6' in height. They are often shorter and lighter than humans, but slight heavier than the average elf. They ocassionally adopt features of their elven heritage such as pointed ears, unique skin tones and complextions, ocassionally inhuman hair colours. Unlike elves, some half-elves are capable of growing facial hair.

Half elves can reproduce with nearly all other species of humanoids. They do however experience slightly longer pregnancies than human do, often up to 11 months.

Additional Information

Facial characteristics

A half elf may have more defined, pointed features much like their elven heritage. They often have clearer skin, and perhaps unique shades of eyes colours.

Geographic Origin and Distribution

Half-Elves are common all across of Tritum, except perhaps Vitaln, where few humans are found to live. The experience of a half-elf can strongly depend on their birthplace. In Ignis, where the city of high elves thrives and rules in the West, isolation and discrimination can come easilly, but in Ultarn, nothing is more common than a half-breed and is completely normalised. In Tenebris, people tend to be cruel to any species where possible...

Average Intelligence

A half-elf's mental prowess is completely circumstation, varying from individual to individual and often nor more itellegent than the average humanoid without vigorous study or learning. They are however, often more naturally inclined to be charming and charasmatic, perhaps good with their words.

Perception and Sensory Capabilities

Much like their elven ancestors, half-elves can see raher well in the dark often to ranges of up to 60 feet. They adopt many of the magical features of elven blood such as their Fey Ancestry or trais based on what kind of elven heritage they come from. For instance, a half elf decending from a wood elf may be naturally better with cerain weapons, a drow descendant may be gifted with natural magic, a hal-elf with sea elf blood may swim stronger than the average human. With their dual heritage, half elves are often wielders of unusual new abilites.
